Maybe Rush should just buy you paper and show you how to make a profit large enough to get better editors. "

LOL!

He deserves $100 Million a year, but he’s trying to do his duty, and save America, so he has accepted this pay cut.

You don't get what you deserve.

You get what you negotiate.

He deserves whatever he and his “payers” agree to pay you friggin’ putz! Typical liberals. Hand ringing about someone being paid too much. Wealth envy BIG TIME! I wish he’d buy the paper and fire the “Post Staff” for even asking such a stupid question. Marxists.

If you read all the comments it's clear the majority feels that, even if not Rush fans, he's earned the money by the fact that his employer is willing to pay it, Capitalism at work The naysayers almost completely fixate on his opinions and the need for a Fairness Doctrine to take him off the air.

These people will be in charge of all three branches of government by 2011. The America they will create will be a frightening place for those interested in preserving economic and political liberty.

Palm Beach Post To Cut 300 Jobs
Wed Jun 25, 2008 at 11:40:04 AM

It’s been a long time coming, but Palm Beach Post publisher Doug Franklin handed down the bad news today (thanks to Pulp readers for posting it). Bottom line:

— 300 jobs will be cut company-wide.
— 130 newsroom jobs will be cut.
— Buyouts are being offered to employees with at least five years vested in the pension plan.

How does Rush getting $50 million a year help Michele Obama’s kids?

No, better to let the advertisers and media fatcats keep it.

RUSH: This is so funny. Last Friday, the Palm Beach Post, they have a -- oh, guess what? The Palm Beach Post today on their website, on their editorial page is running one of their talk back features: "Is Rush Limbaugh Worth It?" Is Rush worth, whatever, $50 million a year, is what they say. And of course, this is designed to get hits, which we're going to do. We're going to generate hits for them. And most of the responses when I checked it this morning were in my favor. They had to post the negative responses four and five times each to balance it out. Then the last Friday, they've got this gossip columnist down here names Jose Lambiet, and Jose ran a piece that ran something like this: Rush Limbaugh known for his intense or something, dislike for illegal Mexican immigrants, nevertheless went to a Mexican restaurant. Now, would somebody explain to me what does opposing illegal immigrants from Mexico or anywhere have to do with going into Mexican restaurant?

The New York Daily News picked up the blurb today. It's funny! I'm sitting here, I'm laughing myself silly. "Rush Limbaugh, noted for opposing illegal immigrants, nevertheless went to a Mexican restaurant with his gal pal, Kathryn Rogers," and they quote what the bill was and the tip that I left. And I'm thinking, you people at the Palm Beach Post, just like I told CNBC the other day, if you don't get your act together over there and start reporting on this stuff accurately, I'm going to buy your paper after I buy CNBC, and I'm going to shut it down, too, and this is after I put in an offer on the Pittsburgh Steelers, which is apparently up for sale here. Well, that's the wrong way to describe it, what's going on. I happen to be privy to some of the inside details on that, but I'm not going to talk about it, I'm not going to talk about it, the Steelers, no, not going to talk about it. But anyway, the comments on the Palm Beach Post editorial page website, the opinion, "Is Rush Limbaugh Worth It?" "He should be in jail for violating drug laws," you know, this kind of stuff, but most of them are very favorable. They reflect a very enlightened understanding of markets. What do you mean worth it? Maybe they use the word deserve, I'm not sure, "Does Rush Limbaugh Deserve 50," and of course most of them say, "Hey, if somebody is willing to pay it, yeah."

Snerdley says they ought to name a park after me down there. I am the most prominent person in this community, and I am treated the way I am. I'm used to it. These are a bunch of commie libs at that newspaper, they just had to lay off 140 people, the Obama campaign staff here in Palm Beach County just suffered major layoffs. (cont.)

Who cares? If Rush has figured out a way to make $50 mil, good for him.

Deserve is a loaded word. Rush earns an honest living which is more than I can say for most in the media or politics.
